Smart move. Once you get to BA, you can hunt for a cheap pension, like the one where Tete lives, rather than an expensive “tourist” apartment. Live like a local, take the bus and subte, eat at home, and go to practicas until you get yourself ready for the milonga experience.

I have a tango friend who was laid off from her job. She is planning her next return because she can’t wait until October.

Then you aren’t as poor as you make it sound without a job. It’s a blessing in disguise to lose a job and have to live three months in BsAs. You are easily impressed. El Indio just opened a practica in Palermo. At least you won’t have to use the cabeceo. That’s a relief.

I’m not without a job, it’s a vacation. But still, I’ll be living three months with the amount usually spent in three weeks. Which means, group classes instead of privates and walks instead of taxis. Or the Subte. But not for El Indio’s practise at Niceto Vega 5248 because if from there I want to reach the nearest Subte station then I have to leave just when the practise starts, at 22h.
